If you are looking for the perfect hotel in Formentera for an unforgettable holiday, let me tell you about a place that ticks every box: Five Flowers Hotel & Spa Formentera. I tested it for you and there is no contest. Superb location, upmarket design, flawless service…
Here is why this hotel has become one of the island’s must-stays. And I will slip in a few useful links if you want to book smart.
An exceptional location close to Es Pujols and dreamy beaches
Five Flowers Hotel & Spa Formentera is the first 5-star luxury hotel in Formentera. It is in the heart of Es Pujols, the liveliest and most pleasant resort in Formentera. You are literally 200 metres from the beach, perfect for alternating swims and strolls on the sand. It is also very well placed, a few minutes’ drive from Ses Illetes beach and La Savina port.
Es Pujols is also THE spot for traditional restaurants, trendy bars and small local shops. You will not need a car to go out in the evening or spend the day wandering. Everything is within walking distance. Handy when you really want to switch off without thinking about logistics.
My tip: to explore more remote coves such as Cala Saona or Illetes beach, rent a bike or scooter directly from the hotel or at the port with the code “FIVEFLOWERS”. They have partnerships with local rental firms, Moto Rent Pujol and Proauto
Careful, quirky, upmarket design
What really struck me when I arrived at Five Flowers was its unique design. The hotel was designed entirely around a “boho-luxury” concept. You find natural materials such as wood and woven fibres, with touches of very pop colour (yellow, pink, etc.).
The rooms (there are 79) are spacious and bright, with private terraces, some with a sea view. All have premium bedding, modern bathrooms and high-tech equipment (Nespresso machine, Marshall Bluetooth speakers, smart TV). The Grand Suite, with its mirrored ceiling and XXL round bed, is a perfect choice for a romantic stay. But special mention goes to the suites with a private jacuzzi on the terrace.
If you want to mark a special occasion, they are gorgeous!
As for food, the generous breakfast buffet is open until noon; it is very complete and varied, with fresh fruit, natural juices and local specialities (I loved it!)
The Sky Cocktail Club on the roof serves cocktails and Japanese-influenced dishes, with a breathtaking view of Formentera and, above all, its sunsets! (Even if you are not staying at the hotel, you can come for an evening.)
Facilities designed for a flawless experience
The hotel leaves nothing to chance when it comes to services. Here is an overview of what you will find:
Five Flowers spa and wellness centre
For a relaxing stay, the spa is one of the big draws. There is a sauna, hammam, whirlpool baths, a heated indoor pool and a wide range of massages and treatments (special mention for the aromatherapy massage with local oils). The bonus? Such a pretty spa!
Rooftop pool with panoramic views
The rooftop is one of the most sought-after spots in the hotel. The infinity pool overlooks Es Pujols and the sea, with a lounge bar serving cocktails and snacks. A real plus for lazing in the sun by day or admiring the sunset, with one of the best views on the island.
Restaurants & bars
The hotel has two restaurants: a varied breakfast buffet (fresh produce, vegetarian options, local pastries) and an à la carte restaurant with Mediterranean influences. You can also enjoy the rooftop bar and a second, more relaxed bar downstairs.
Breakfast is excellent, with a very varied, indulgent and fresh choice.
Exclusive activities and experiences around the hotel
Staying at Five Flowers is also a chance to discover Formentera differently.
The hotel offers activities and excursions bookable directly at reception:
- Boat trips (catamaran, private yacht) to explore Illetes beach, Espalmador or even go as far as Ibiza.
- Snorkelling or scuba-diving trips in crystal-clear water.
- Yoga and fitness classes on the rooftop several mornings a week.
- Bike and electric scooter hire, perfect for exploring the island at your own pace.
Why choose Five Flowers over another hotel in Formentera?

Here is what I took away after staying there in 2024:

Upmarket comfort: premium bedding, the latest equipment, spa and rooftop pool.
Careful, modern decor, without being showy.
Turnkey experiences: activities, scooter hire, wellness treatments, valet parking… everything can be booked easily through the hotel.
Excellent value for a 5-star, especially if you book early or in low season (May, September).
When to book for the best prices?
I recommend booking as early as possible. Prices vary a lot with the season.
